Ingredients

  • 1 cup plus 2 Tbs. olive oil
  • 6 Tbs. aged balsamic vinegar
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 shallots, minced
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • 6 portobello mushrooms, about 1 1/2 lb.
  • total, brushed clean and stems removed
  • 6 round sourdough rolls, cut in half
  • 1 1/2 cups crumbled goat cheese (chèvre)
  • 12 oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and
  • sliced in half
  • 24 fresh basil leaves

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic, shallots, salt and pepper. Arrange the mushroom caps in a single layer in a shallow, nonreactive dish. Pour half of the marinade over the mushrooms and reserve the remainder. Cover and marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, turning after 30 minutes.
  • Prepare a fire in a grill. Lightly oil the grill rack. When the coals are hot, remove the mushrooms from the marinade, place on the grill rack and weight with a large fry pan. Grill the mushrooms until tender and seared on both sides, about 4 minutes total.
  • Drizzle about 1 Tbs. of the reserved marinade on each roll half. Place a mushroom on the bottom half of each roll. Sprinkle the top half with goat cheese, then cover with sun-dried tomatoes and basil leaves. Place the halves together. Secure each sandwich with toothpicks, cut in half and wrap in aluminum foil. Keep chilled until ready to serve.
